Abstract
Bacteriological comparisons between the tear fluids of soft contact lens wearers and noncontact lens wearers indicate that there is an increase in the bacterial population in contact lens wearers but not a significant change in the varieties present. Differences between groups of contact lens wearers appear to depend on the method of disinfection used.Keywords
